Opting for a sari was Shilpa at the AsiaSpa Aawards wearing one by Arpita Mehta with pearl Renu Oberoi jhumkis and a silver clutch. I would’ve preferred a beige clutch instead of the metallic one but there is no denying she worked every bit of that ruffle sari!

We have all been there. Out of seemingly no where wedding season creeps up on us, we get blindsided, scream bloody murder, call our BFF and cry, “I have nothing to wear”!
Dust the cake crumbs off your pajamas (you know you were stress eating), and read on. We have some ideas that might be just the gentle nudge you needed.
First things first, the Mehendi.
Whether you are the bride herself, a fabulous friend or a close relative, you know you want to be both comfortable and hit the right tone. Palazzos/shararas are low maintenance and give you the all important mobility. A non-blingy sari when accessorized just right strikes that contemporary note and makes for a welcome change of pace.
Below are some suggestions inspired by celebrity sightings on these pages. Find one that sings to you and make it your own!
Let the festivities (and shopping) begin.

So, the Mehendi is done. You’ve used your entire cache of patience in letting that henna dry out, keeping it on and not stain or maim everything and everyone in sight. Yay! Also, yay you can now let your hair down and shimmy a little. Now, let’s talk clothes!
Whether it’s classic, contemporary or comfy, the trick is to pick a look that works for you and one that you can work, head-to-toe. Take some inspiration from these ladies!
You can never go wrong with a pretty lehenga, all the better for finally trying out those dance lessons you’ve been taking. A contemporary twist on a sari checks the festive box without compromising your fashionista street-cred. But for those of us who have to be dragged away from the dance floor, can anything be better than a non-fussy off-shoulder top and lehenga? No dupatta, no problem!
Now that you have your outfit covered, go on, perfect those moves!

Changing things up, Parineeti picked an Arpita Mehta outfit for a recent appearance of hers. Wearing her hair to the side, she rounded out the look with a glossy lip, Amrapali jewelry and metallic sandals.
Florals, tassels and tiers, all together a bit much for me personally. But Parineeti to her credit didn’t seem overwhelmed by any of it. She wore her look well.

For the festivities back in Mumbai, Jacqueline picked a cherry yellow Arpita Mehta lehenga to wear. With her hair partially pinned back, she rounded out the look with traditional jewelry, a clutch and pair of neutral sandals from Aldo.
Like the look on her?

Disha wore a peach Arpita Mehta lehenga with jewellery by Mrinalini Chandra to Ambani’s Ganesh Chaturthi festivities on Friday evening.
Besides the fact that the color didn’t seem to do much for her, I am also questioning the choice of outfit. A bustier top with a sheer dupatta to a Ganesh Puja event? If this was me, I can already hear my Mom screaming “Cover up, will ya!” :P
